- Relatively new to the scene, Roberto Bosco originally caught the attention of Orlando Voorn, and quickly found his way in to the crates of Francois K and Derrick May after his debut release on Night Vision made major moves in the techno community. Now already three EP's deep in to 2009 on such labels as Be As One and Mowar, his fourth outing keeps his head firmly planted in the Detroit sound, artfully proving he paid attention to his forefathers of the scene.
Without question, the most notable factor of the 12-inch is the driving shuffle of every track. Both "One" and "Club" come off as big-room beasts upon first listen, but after a few more runs, it's obvious that there is really no set time of night (or day) that these two cuts should be limited to. The female vocal stabs of "One" marry nicely to its deep bassline, and the classic sounding chord work of "Club" is easily one that most clubgoers will be citing as a highlight of their nights out.
On the less obvious tip, "Circle Dub" and the mysteriously titled "Circle Dub (Dub)" satisfy those looking for a more laid-back approach. Simplistic in nature but powerful by design, both take their stripped form in all directions, letting apt DJ's slaughter the late night crowd, or openers provide a perfect bridge for the often foggy transition period to headliners. Though marginally different, "Circle Dub" contains a warm wash of synth pads in its last half whereas its "dub" doesn't.
